Description

What you do Collaborate closely with the local DPO to deliver strategic and operational guidance to Allianz entities and affiliates on data privacy compliance, harmonizing multi-jurisdictional regulations (e.g., EU, UK) with Allianz Partners’ internal privacy frameworks, including the APS and BCRs.

Evaluate Privacy Impact Assessments (PIAs), embedding privacy controls through Allianz Partners’ automation platforms (e.g., OneTrust). Act as a vital resource for business teams by translating privacy mandates into clear, actionable advice and fostering solution-focused decision-making across both operational and strategic projects. Examine data processing agreements to ensure they meet regulatory standards and corporate policies. Manage data subject rights requests and incident response workflows, covering DSAR triage, breach handling, remediation monitoring, and reporting, while maintaining procedural rigor and prompt communication with stakeholders. Promote a strong privacy culture via customized training, awareness initiatives, and stakeholder collaboration, ensuring teams grasp evolving obligations and integrate privacy-by-design principles into everyday operations.

At least 5 years of experience in privacy advisory, data protection operations, or compliance roles, preferably within multinational or cross-jurisdictional environments. Proven expertise in managing complex regulatory frameworks such as GDPR, local APAC laws, ISO 27001/27701, and privacy governance models like NIST or EDPB guidelines. Proficient in designing, evaluating, and enhancing privacy processes and controls, including DPIA workflows, DSAR management, and third-party risk assessments. Demonstrated skill in translating complex regulatory and operational privacy challenges into clear, actionable insights tailored for legal, technical, and executive audiences. Effective communication abilities with diverse stakeholders (e.g., business, legal, IT, security) on data protection and privacy topics. Strong interpersonal, influencing, and negotiation capabilities in high-pressure or multicultural settings. Proactive, responsible, and solution-driven approach. Firm commitment to ethical behavior, confidentiality, and responsible data management. Professional certifications such as CIPM, CIPP/E, CIPT, AIGP, CPDSE, or OneTrust are preferred; additional training in AI governance or risk management is advantageous.
